Thinking about a small one. Like the height of 285's

 

Stock rims?

 

You'll be fine on 5100s then. So many people run them - not many people are as hard on them as the dude I wheel with who has the xterra with them. You'll be fine with anything at that point, though.

 

Your old ones. lol

 

Probably will need wheels spacers then

 

small ones yes.

 

Has he gotten good life from them?

 

Don't go to a shop. You'll get raped. I'm happy to or out in western ma @crashngiggles and @tacobell007 ... Sometimes all of us

 

His? No, he's the one who had them blow out and have us rebuild them on the trails in the middle of the North Maine Woods but he's also a bit (a lot) harder on his stuff than most people, let alone a pavement princess. His blew, he's going for Dobinson's now I think. I wouldn't get 5100s because I am just as hard (probably a little less) on my stuff than he is, but if you aren't wheeling it and (I think actually) jumping it, they're fine. A TON of people on these forums have 5100s and like them. They're good, comfortable, and relatively cheap. But it's like buying a nice bike from Walmart. It'll do it, and do well for a lot of people, but you won't see them on the circuits.

 

Only if I can help and fill your gas tank or fridge

 

If you ever see my truck jumping something, something has gone horribly wrong.

 

Nice, maybe carrier bearing drop. I can't weld so can't do your CMC. (Are you sure you need it?)
Maybe we can get a few people and a good welder and do a CMC day. I want and a few others also. Maybe spring unless there's a shop. About out of good weather now.

 

Id be down for a cmc day, also keep us posted on the alignment happenings @Unchained 5150 I need a good shop too, might make the drive up to Maine if they're good

 

No cmc for me I love my skinny 33’s

 

I’ve got the chop plates and ECGS bushing, am just waiting for my tires to wear down a bit more before bumping up from 265 to 285. I know i wont really need the clearance around here but they sure do look nice. Surprised MA inspection doesn’t bop people for CMC

 

Nah Paint it, Woolwax it they’ll never know

 

Going the skinny 33 route as well, but i wanna future proof myself for whatever crazy decisions I know I make can't wait to get em mounted

 

Size???

 

255/85r16 wildpeak MTs, wanted the ATs but they don't make em in 16s

 

Still shouldn’t need a cmc
